The import File GeoDatabase commands convert File GeoDatabase
into Carlson drawing entities. It is optionally write the available
attribute data to GIS Data Format which defined in GIS Settings
dialog. The command creates GIS links between the drawing entities
and the records in the database.
There are primarily three types of GeoDatabase files:
Points/MultiPoint, Polylines/MultiLineString and
Polygons/MultiPolygon. Each will provide different options on
Import. Once the GeoDatabase file is selected, Carlson detects the
data contents of the file and sets the dialog options for importing
either polygons, polylines or points. Polylines are brought into
Carlson as open polylines and Polygons are as closed polylines in
the drawing.
Import from GeoDatabase dialog will list all available features
in the GeoDB File. The user can select import all features or one
of the features in the list. If the user selected one of the
feature from the list, then the user can select corresponding
fields for the Point ID/Entity ID, Description, Elevation and
Layer, etc. The selected fields would be used to fill Carlson
internal fields. If no field is selected for Point ID/Entity ID,
then the program will create an unique ID for each entity. If no
field is selected for Point Desc, then the description will leave
blank. If no field is selected for Layer, then the feature name
will be used as layer name. If the feature type is Point/MultiPoint
and also "Enable Store/Read Point GIS Data to/from SQLite(CRDB)
File" is selected in GIS Settings dialog, then the user can select
a name for the CRDB. The program will also output points geometry
and GIS Data to CRDB.
